How do they make money? All audio is processed on device, but is the goal to use the public training/learning to tailor a more robust model which they can sell commercially/integrate into apps/phones/etc?

My suspicion is that the founders/engineers will be acqui-hired for a not-insignificant sum by one of the existing big players in the teleconference space (Zoom, Google, Cisco, etc.).

Or they hope to license this and have it built into every service by default.

Make this work on a mobile device for phone calls for business people and you're in the money! Finding quiet space to make phone calls is a hassle.

2Hz CEO here (we built Krisp). Windows support will come in Dec. We are working hard on it.

How about Linux? Shouldn't be that much more of a lift.

Such feedback from users is priceless. Thanks for it. Krisp is still in beta and we keep experimenting with different DNN models. For example we have a DNN model which maximally preserves multiple voices while removing noise. It's not shipped yet. Re #2, one thing we noticed is that Conferencing apps themselves will distort the voice when multiple voices are overlapping. Especially when there is also noise. There is…

Here's to hoping they make a version for Windows and/or Linux. Mac support is nice, but this seems business-focused (though handy for casual use). Most businesses, especially outside of Silicon Valley, don't use Mac; Windows will likely be a larger market.

How about iOS, particularly for X series phones which have the "bionic" ML co-processor with installable models?
